We use apple displays for colour, although they don't do the matte finish anymore, so we also have Some of the pro NEC multisync ones.
You should be looking for a resolution no less than 1920x1080 and a high contrast ratio. Saying that some of these monitors have a high contrast ratio but still have a crap black, they just have a high white point.


CRT's? Are they super expensive then? I dont want to go all NASA super computer about it, but at the same time, when I got my Tv I spent more money than I could have done, but I got what I paid for. I don't wanna buy some shitty LCD screen thats gonna be blurry and have crap colours, but I guess my main issue was whether a specific monitor, like, a monitor built for a computer, would be better, or whether a decent TV is better. Or if the differene is negligible.

I'll google search about a bit over the coming future.


1920 x 1080? - Got ya, I'll keep that in mind.
